- You'd like the same app for your partner, your parents and your friends.
- You want question categories like faith, parenting or pregnancy.
One question vs one shared moment
Agapé keeps its daily habit very small: one question a day, chosen for the relationship it's with, and you only see each other's answer once you've both replied. It isn't only for couples. You can use it with a parent or a friend too, and it only sends spicy questions to a matched partner.
Miles Apart's daily challenge is bigger by design. You each answer three multiple-choice questions, one written question and a photo prompt, and everything reveals together once you've both finished. For long-distance couples, the photo is often the best part: a small look at an ordinary day you're not there for.
What there is to do beyond the question
Agapé is focused on questions, with dozens of optional categories to tune them, from long distance and reconnecting to finances and parenting. Its listing says you can answer thousands of questions for free, with premium categories on a subscription.
Miles Apart adds a lot around the daily challenge: 22 games for two, couple quizzes, 11 Date Night conversation decks, letters carried by a pigeon that flies the real distance between you, a shared memory map, visit countdowns and home-screen widgets.
